On the western side of the safe zone, the situation was quickly falling apart. It had been the first section to come under attack, catching many of the soldiers off guard before they could properly organize their defenses.
The Variants had bombarded the wall with massive rocks from the very beginning, disrupting defensive positions and forcing soldiers to scatter for cover. Air support had responded soon after, but even that short delay had been enough for the horde to close much of the distance toward the wall.
Above the battlefield, helicopters circled through the darkness, hunting down the Variants hiding among the trees. The massive infected fought back, hurling rocks into the sky and forcing the pilots to constantly maneuver while returning fire.
Meanwhile, the situation on the wall continued to worsen.
"Command, we need more reinforcements!"
"Second Squad, reinforce the left sector!"
"Movement on the right!"
